Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (e.g., Tabasco or Sriracha)
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon white vinegar
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon green onions (optional, finely chopped)
- 1 tablespoon pickled jalapeños (optional, finely chopped)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water until they are submerged by about 1 inch.
Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat, then cover the saucepan, remove it from the heat, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for at least 5 minutes.
Carefully peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise.
Gently remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl. Arrange the egg whites cut-side up on a serving platter.
Mash the yolks with a fork until they form a crumbly consistency.
Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, hot sauce, paprika, cayenne pepper, white vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the yolks. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Adjust seasoning to taste, adding more hot sauce for extra heat if desired.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture into the egg white halves using a small spoon or pastry bag with a star tip.
Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika on top. If desired, add finely chopped green onions or pickled jalapeños as additional garnishes.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving. Enjoy your delicious and slightly spicy deviled eggs!
